About 3 weeks ago my 51cm Soma San Marcos build was completed. Since then I have been riding the San Marcos exclusively for about 325 miles and I am thoroughly enjoying the versatility, fit and comfort. I am really quite smitten and love everything about this bike, the geometry, 32mm tires,650b wheels, and all the components that I selected. Robins egg blue and shiny silver, ready for to go anytime, anywhere.

I hadn't ridden a bicycle with drop bars since I was a teenager. Previous to the Cannondale I had been riding hybrids, mountain bikes and a Rans Crankfoward. I chose the Synapse because it was the most comfortable of all the drop bar bikes that I tried and I tried the usual bike shop brands, Trek, Speacialized, Bianchi, etc. The shop where I bought the bike fitted me to the bike using a the fit systems, I don't remember which one and all and all they did a pretty good job. My only complaint, is the length at which they cut the steerer tube without consulting me. Consequently I had to have a stem extender installed. I have spent the past 3 years riding and learning what kind of a cyclist I am. I have gone full circle from riding without foot retention to riding clipless and back to platform pedals. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
